• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

The wild garlic in the wild patch I've left for the insects at the bottom of my garden has gone bonkers this year. They produce pretty little pink flowers and tiny little bulbs that are a bit of a faff, but worth the effort, with a mild and nutty flavour. We had some in a spaghetti sauce I made tonight and it was delicious.

Anyway - my daughter was playing around with a new fisheye lens she got for her camera and took these - nice pics, worth sharing I thought. I turned the vase a while ago out of a scrap piece of eucalyptus; it's tiny - less than 4 inches tall. Fully hollow using the two-part hollowing technique:

Nice little pot and the garlic flowers set it off. Do the flowers have a strong scent of garlic
 
Thanks guys. I do have some glass liners (actually they are plastic test tubes, bought on ebay - easier to cut to size) but that little pot is too small. She just put the flowers in there to photograph them. They don't have much of any scent. The bulbs can't be toxic because my daughter and I are still alive and well this morning! :mrgreen:
